        May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your SPF30, may the rains fall soft upon your sweat-wicking hat, and until you hit the finish line may The Flying Spaghetti Monster hold you in the hollow of His Noodly Appendage.

          Survived.  My foot was giving me hell this week, I managed to hurt it somehow.  I didn't even run all week to let it rest.  I managed to run without pain in my foot, but I must have been running a bit off because my quad hurt and I couldn't get a "kick" at the end.  Oh well.  It's still a pr...  of course when will I ever run an 11k again?

          Bring it on.

            Distance - 5 KM
            Race - Toronto Beaches Spring Sprint
            Location - Toronto, ON

            Goal - 19:30

             

            or, possibly run it with Cam for his PB in which case < 21:30

             

            I decided to pace 10 yr old Cam. Well, not exactly decided, it just happened. We started together, I felt good so I decided to race it. Cam was still with me after a couple of minutes and I felt he may be going too fast so I said to stick with me and slowed down a bit. He ran well and steady at a pace we were shooting for which would be sub 21 min. He ended up with 20:44 - a PR by 45 seconds and 1st in the 12 and under AG 

            For me, at that pace, after a good warmup, ended up being a nice 5k tempo run day. Ther will be plenty more chances at 5k coming soon so i was happy with the day on he whole. 

             

            so, I wont get Race of the Week, but I should get Pacer of the Week!

                1:43:01 .... I saw Milk Truck at the start and ran with him for the entire race.

                  Great race, Corland.

                    Hey, also a great race.  Was the dirt road a big mudfest?

                      I hear you.  It's intimidating and i still can't really believe it's real.

                        result- 15:48

                         

                        was at 4:52 at 1600 meters and 9:50 at 3200 meters, but blew up after that.  legs were just shot. i gave it all i had, but  from 1600-2000 meters we threw in a 71 second lap and i think that's what really did me in.  if i had just stayed steady at 73 i would've held on longer, although i still probably would've died that last 1k.  

                         

                        At least it's a lesson learned.

                         

                        My result - Bltyh Valley 10k - 32.16 (23s PB). Placed 3rd. Unexpectedly fast course. I had a wind block for the windy out leg who then died a 1000 deaths in the second half.

                          Goal: 3:10, which will be a 30+ minute PR.  This is my long-awaited replacement race after my goal marathon in December was cancelled.

                           

                          Absolutely delighted with a chip time of 3:08:59.  All in all, I've been building up to this attempt for a year, including many, many 4AM starts to get training in before work.  It all paid off on race day - so I'm very happy.
